After four NBA Championship rings, six teams, 19 seasons, 28,596 career points and countless laughs, Shaquille O’Neal announced his retirement on Wednesday. The 39-year-old made the announcement via video and posted it on his Twitter page.
“I really, really thought about coming back, but this Achilles’ is very damaged, and if I had it done the recovery would be so long we’d have the same outcome as this last year — everyone sitting around and waiting for me,” O’Neal said.
The NBA will miss The Big Retirement, both on and off the court.
